Countdown to UFC 110: 635,000 Viewers

February 19, 2010

MMAPayout.com has learned that Countdown to UFC 110 drew 635,000 viewers in its debut last night on Spike TV. The program enjoyed a sizable lead-in as it was placed in the time slot immediately following pro wrestling’s TNA: Impact.

Countdown to UFC 109 enjoyed a similar lead-in – following the UFC 107 replay on January 31st – and Spike will be looking to pair Countdown shows with similar demographic lead-ins in the future.

    Rumor has it 109 did less than 400K buys, what are the projections for 110?

    The Countdown is also streaming free on ufc.com with no commercial interruptions which is how i watched it. I wonder how many views that has gotten.

    The UFC put the Countdown show online a couple of days before it aired and showed it on Versus a day earlier. I wonder what effect that had on ratings.

    I wish they would air it at the same time leading up to the PPV. Before one PPV it will air for the first time on a Monday. Next PPV it will air for the first time on a Tuesday. This time it was a Thursday. I just wish they would find a night and stick with it. That way every week leading up to a PPV I know what night I can count on watching it.

    I watched the countdown on T101HD channel on Direct TV. There are so many ways to see this program now I wonder if the Spike numbers are still reliable.

Got something to say?
